After having lived in Japan for the past 20 years, I finally got the chance to experience riding on the night bus in Japan. I have been planning to try one for the longest time, since even from my place in Tsukuba, there are night buses going to Kyoto and Osaka but I have never acted on my plans.

Travel around North Kansai to visit blissful happiness magnificent sceneries of one of the three views in Japan,
Michelin star 2 sightseeing spot, Macchu Picchu of Japan, footbath and 7 kinds of healing onsen!

At 00:00, I took the overnight Relax bus to Niigata from Tokyo station.
For a non-Japanese speaker, the bus station have electronic boards with clearly indicated destinations.
The seats were comfortable on the Willer Express relax bus and the hoods are an added bonus for privacy.

We started our journey from Shinjuku Station around 11:20 pm.
The station bus in Shinjuku Station provided a lot of sign in English, so it helped us to find our bus easily.
Since the bus is provided with single seat and has curtain that surround for each seat, it is very convenient and it gives privacy for the passengers.

We left shinjuku station to go to the 5th station of fuji-san. When we came to the station it was really windy. We had a great lunch at Unjouaku before the climbing. The wind made us change our gear, it was necessary because it was also sunny. We rent a gear from the shop and we were glad because we had shoes, sticks, lamp, clothes…everything was there!
